This project is currently on hold, due to lack of finance. (May, 1998)

Actually, by now, it is quite dead. 10/22/00

So why is this page still here?

It's referenced from a few places, so either those pages should be refactored or (preferably) this page left as a death notice. The comments elsewhere seem non-trivial, and expunging history won't let it serve as a lesson to other cloners.
